Default Any famous people who have owned scoobs!

Just wondering how many famous people have owned scoobs, i know that Ryan Giggs had a 22B and still owns it, and the boxer Prince Nassem had a 22B is well but is there any other famous people.

"Superbike" James Whitham had a Scoob for a while. Then his wife Andrea had one after him. Is he famous enough?

My current scoobs first owner was Lord Edward Spencer-Churchill, of Blenheim Palace. Says so in nice calligraphy inside the service book (and on the V5)!

David May(when he played for Man U)had a green turbo with leather interior.I zipped past him down the A627 to Sandbrook Park,on my Fireblade.He pulled into McDonalds,so I went and had a chat with him.(my turbo was on order at the time so i asked him what he thought of the car.I have to confess i didnt know it was him until i put my head through his window to talk"Oh hello Dave hows it going,er what do you think of the car" etc

I think he moved onto a Audi ,and then Porsche after that.

Jeez, someone else has heard of him. Everyone I mention him to says 'who?'

Hope he doesn't use it to empty his chemical toilet over a bridge like his tour bus did recently.

Also for the bikers, John Reynolds had an RB5. He got rid just before I bought my scoob, but couldn't stretch the extra cash to buy it..

I think he must be bigger over here in the States... either that, or he's just unusually popular around Seattle since he moved up here a few years back.

No futher toilet incidents have been reported

hi all,
this is my first post at these forums, so i thought i'd start off by maybe making an idiot of myself..
...i think the guy from faithless (maxi jazz) actually owned a p1 at one time, cos he once mentioned it in "rallyxs" magazine
